Thomas (or anyone else) can explain me why my BTA's tentacles are sooooooo long? Does it need more light?

Ha, thats not long, some/most BTAs will loose the bubbles and stretch their tenticals much longer than that.

I mean u do have enough wattage, What are the dimensions of your tank? If its below 24" in height and width, then you should be ok. Just make sure your anemone is getting high intensity light. Light from PC lighting tends to get weak as it starts to go the bottom of your tank. But I mean your BTA is looking great. When BTA's bubble like that, it means he is getting good enough light.

He's half way in the tank so approx 15" from the PC's. Last night he actually didn't have any bubbles!!

My BTA is in a 29-gallon under 2x65-watt actnics and a 250-watt metal halide, and it doesn't have bubbles. Its tentacles get pretty long like yours does. Mine eats fine, has been here for months, loves its clown...I wouldn't worry. :)
